    Yes something was clearly off with him, which, as said, I mentioned at the time, during his ring walk :facepalm:

    I don't dispute that Fat Andy came in fatter, but the fact is AJ avenged his loss to an inferior opponent with ease

    Yes he's so soft he's, at worst, the second best HW of his generation with a far better resume than both The Dosser and Fury and he actually had the guts to face Usyk twice, the same Usyk Fury shamelessly ducked

    AJ beat up Fury in the gym when he was still in the amateurs and even Fury admits that :lol:

    No, Fury clearly ducked AJ like he ducked Usyk and now he's fighting ''bum'' Chisora again. He was trying to fight a shot Charr as well :lol:

    The Dosser has fought a grand total of 2 world champions in 45 fights and one of them was shot to bits and was 2-4 in their previous 6 fights, 3 of said losses via KO/stoppage, both wins against scrubs

    AJ has fought 6 in almost half the fights, and beaten 5, and he's fought a lot more punchers than The Dosser :facepalm:

    Povetkin couldn't floor AJ and he's one of the hardest HW punchers of recent years with one of the best HW KO HL reels of recent times

    Murderous punching Wlad only dropped him once

    J-Park couldn't drop AJ

    Neither could puncher Whyte

    Or Breazeale, Pulev, Takam, Molina who hurt The Dosser badly

    All of whom are bigger or way bigger than Usyk

    Sit your ass down, clown :lol:

    How do you compare Miniq with Fury to MVC with Floyd, Joker to Pacquiao?

    "fanatic spin merchant"

    It takes one to know one. I've never spun anything remotely as hard as suggesting that Junior Fa was a "puncher" lol.

    Wlad has a deep record but not a deep record of elite wins and he's got relatively a deep record of losses. Was the Povetkin win legitimate? Haye wouldn't even get in a ring with Fury. Byrd was by his own admission a "blown up SMW".

    Wlad's trainer claimed that Wlad dropped Wilder but didn't KO him. Whyte claimed that Wlad sparked Wilder but he also claimed that he personally put a bit of a beating on Wlad and roughed him up in sparring, so I don't consider that idiot reliable. This was also a very green 2011/2012 Wilder and if Wilder had tried to take Wlad's head off, he would have been thrown out of the gym pretty quickly as Miller was.

    There was a 100M sprinter who set a sub-10 second PB at 40, a sport where athletes tend to peak much earlier than HW boxing. "Prime" should be judged according to performances and Wlad was still dominating unbeaten contenders, recording a career best win 12 months prior to Fury. Going in to the fight Wlad was a massive favourite against the inexperienced Fury but post-fight narratives were crafted in order to deny Fury credit for what was objectively a great win.

    If defences are so important then Wlad had 18 and Wilder had 10 and Fury dominated both, so it's a self-defeating argument. But if we look closer, many if not most of those defences (including Mormeck, Pianeta, Leapai, Stiverne 2, Molina) were guys Fury would get a lot of flack for fighting even as a stay busy.

    If you lose due to gassing out against a fringe contender or journeyman then your stamina has been exposed, it's no less of an exposure of vulnerability than getting chinned. And Sanders (who was regarded as a guaranteed win) was KO'd closer to his "prime" by Nate Tubbs and Rahman, he was no world-beater.
